Well, we already know what to expect for 2003 and it looks as if they are heading in the right direction but even more exciting is the Luke jedi revealed for 2004. So, if by what I little I have seen of the Luke jedi, here is what I think would be a great line of no action feature nuetral posed figures for 2004.

Well, this is my list. 3 from each movie. I know many are resculpts but ones that are greatly needed.

According to what GH was told at Hasbro's Toy Show, we'll see a strong focus on ROTJ, especially Jabba's Palace Aliens, to go with the new Jabba on tap for 2004. And Ewoks, including Woklings. We also have Captain Antilles, General Dodonna, and the 2 starring Dignitaries confirmed for 2004. But judging by GH's comments, that rumor list we saw a while ago could be true. :)

Believe it... or not...

Not Ripleys... I may sport the glasses and goatee, but sorry no Dean Cain here..

Though some talk of new figures in the future have been whispered in our ears here at the Fed...

These come from a pretty reliable source, but of course you can take it for what it's worth...

What we have heard being planned so far...

Stass Allie
Passel Argente
Bespin Gown Leia
Cloud Car Pilot
C-3P0 Jabba's Palace
Bib Fortuna
Weequay
Jabba w/ dais- as we have mentioned in the past
Chief Chirpa
General Madine
Imperial Dignitary- (though there was also talk of both versions at one point, only one is listed as of now)

A couple of non figure items we have heard is...

6" Boba Fett from Episode II
Cloud Car- (which has been on lists many times before)

Now take into account Hasbro has not made any confirmations on any of these, but a close source to Hasbro has mentioned these being talked of.

At this point scheduled release is not known at all, though if we hear anything more we promise to let you know. We do understand though that some are being talked of for 2004 release.

Who knows what Cantina Alien Hasbro will throw at us. I didn't even know who Djas Puhr was before last year and this year, we are getting another obscure alien as part of the Cantina packs(Kittit-something). Tycho did a poll of a dozen Cantina Aliens, maybe they will use that. Come to think of it, there was a Jabba's Palace poll as well.

I just hope we get more aliens and droids! And imperials! I am looking forward to the dignitary(ies)!!

Well according to someones post in another thread, I thought they were gonna focus on Jabba's Palace aliens and such. Anyway I would like to see a ton of figures. Will post them later on when I have some time.

Cool lists, I'm really looking forward to 2004. I'll probably be looking for almost all of those. Hopefully, we'll also see Bartender R2-D2 too.

As for what I'd like to see next year in addition to the rumor list, that's pretty easy. Lemme throw up a few of my top choices. :)

All those names are officially approved names, by Lucasfilm. Some of them are Lucasfilm creation, many are the creation of West End Games and Decipher. But they are all officially approved. It's a hell of a lot easier to refer to charecters by their established names, so people know who your talking about. And every charecter he mentioned, and everyone else mentioned, do appear in the films. :p :)

MTFBWY and HH!!

Actually, those are the character names. They appear in one or two frames:D . Some of them are pretty obvious, but others are hard to find.

I am sooo for the idea of ROTJ figures next year. I am dying to see a General Madine! I also think a Ackbar with a control chair would be nice:).

Hem Dazon, R1-G4, Wioslea, Hermie Odle, Yarna, and Rappertunie !!! All awesome figures that could be made. Very unique, exciting figures could be made of these. Im all for that.

JediBrian OMG! Did you make all those names up?????? Do any of those even appear in one frame of film? Geeeeze!

Here are pics of most of the aliens I named earlier.

One thing that i would love to see is the Y-Wing with it's armour on, i read that they look the way they do because they had that much maintenance done to them it was easier to leave it off, So detachable panels all around would make a nice addition i think..:p

The young imperial is Chief Bast And there are two old guys round the table. Not including Yularen. The one in the pic JJB linked to has white hair and the one in this pic is balding with swept back hair. Chief bast is on my top want list though. One of a few speaking Imperial officers we need. General Tagge is another and LT. Praji who confers with vader on the Tantive IV. Then there's Thann Childsen "where are you taking this - thing?" and the guy from the Endor bunker "You rebel scum!"

As far as JJB's screen scene idea though with the exeption of the old Imperial guys and the inclusion of Vader, I could see these happening. With having motti already though I think this would be a good place to finally resculpt the death star troopers legs and put out a neutral posed version. so in my view the sets would be thus:

I just see that as more of a realistic option somehow but we all have our rights to opinions and if JJB wants to believe he is right then so be it. But I too believe I am right. But as this is all hypothetical then none of it matters much anyway. ;)

With that big black table and chairs it'd make a nice duo of sets though.

I'm collecting every figure anyways, but I'm ignoring the rumors for now. I only beg for neutral, no gimmick action features. I want to see all episodes evenly represented with new fresh characters. However 2004 looks hot. :D

I'll be happy with just:

Gamorrean Guard resculpt (more accurate - they were fat, drooling pig-men; the heroic look of the POTF2 version was lame, IMHO)

Kithaba!!! -- he needs to be made since the vintage Barada was incorrectly painted with Kithaba's color scheme. Thus in order to satisfy those darn vintage line completists, he MUST be made for the same reason that we need a silver Death Star Droid and a blue-suited Snaggletooth.:cool:

Hermi Odle -- I shouldn't even need to explain why he should be made (except maybe to JediTricks:p )
